This study aims to determine the appropriate Carboxyl Methyl Cellulose (CMC) concentration treatment for canarium nut milk with the best physical and organoleptic characteristics. This study was designed using a completely randomized design of one factorial CMC concentration, which consisted of 4 treatment levels, namely 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, and 0.4%. The results showed that canarium nut milk with a concentration of 0.4% CMC was the best treatment with physical characteristics, namely pH 6.43, total dissolved solids 1.86oBrix. Based on the hedonic quality test, it produced canarium nut milk with a color of 2.8 (like), aroma of 2.7 (like), taste of 3.1 (like), and texture of 1.9 (slightly like).
